I LOVE roads on a grid

Ellie: Look, Mommy! I drew a map! It will show us how to get to Nana's house tonight!
Mommy: Oh good, let's use it!
Ellie: OK!
Mommy: Look at your map... where are we now?
Ellie: Right here. See da blue line?
Mommy: Ok, and where is Nana's house?
Ellie: Right here. See da green line.
Mommy: Good. Does your map say to turn right or left here?
Ellie: Left.
Mommy: (turning left) Ok, at the next light does your map say to turn right or go straight?
Ellie: Ummm... Go straight.
Mommy: (goes straight) Does your map say to turn right after one or two stop lights?
Ellie: Ummm... Two.
Mommy: (counts out loud and turns right at second light)
Ellie: (starting to get nervous) Is this the right way?
Mommy: We're following your map, right? I'm sure we'll get there.
Ellie: (doubtful) Ok...
Mommy: Look at your map again. Does it say to turn left after four or five stop signs?
Ellie: Ummm... four!
Mommy: (counts out loud and turns left after 4th sign) Ok. Does your map say to turn right after one or two stop lights?
Ellie: One.
Mommy: (turns right at first stop light)
Ellie: Is dis da right way? Are we going da right way?
Mommy: We're following your map, right?
Ellie: (doubtful) Ok...
Mommy: See that light up there? Does your map say to turn left there?
Ellie: Yep!
Mommy: (turns left at light) Ok, I think we're getting close. Does your map say to turn right at 17th Street or turn right after a grocery store?
Ellie: Ummm... affa a grocery store.
Mommy: Ok... so lets look for a store. You let me know when you see one.
Ellie: Look dere's one! Right dere! Do you see it?
Mommy: Oh good! (turns right onto 17th Street) Now does your map say to turn right after the gas station?
Ellie: Yes! And look! There's a gas station! Turn right here!
Mommy: (turns right) Look! I think this is the street that Nana lives on. Tell me when you see her house.
Ellie: Dere it is! Dere it is! See, just like on da map. Do you see the green line?
